You mean there is an application on the iphone that sets the device id
here? I thought this was the iphone device ids already assigned to
apple.

If we need a linux-specific device id, I can assign them from the Linux
foundations pool of device ids, but so far I've only done that for
devices that either run Linux (usb gadgets), or for the usb root hubs.
But hey, if it's controlable from software, let me know and I'll dole
one out. In that case, why would you need 3 different device ids?
